Employees of the Southern Poverty Law Center civil rights organization have voted to unionize.
The organization announced Monday that employees voted to join the Washington-Baltimore local of The News Guild-Communications Workers of America, AFL-CIO. A supermajority of employees this fall requested representation by the union.
Karen Baynes-Dunning, the interim president and CEO of the Southern Poverty Law Center, said employees have spoken through the process and they will move forward as one SPLC.
